If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

It was my sombre duty back in 2010 to honour Danish and British war dead as part of my daily job in Helmand. It feels emblematic of a flawed relationship.

Q: What's the difference between someone in NATO and Donald Trump?

A: Donald Trump would never put on a uniform to defend the United States.

This offends me far more than his usual bullshit. It's up there with his delight in Rob Reiner's death. And if it offends me, imagine how the families of the hundreds of NATO soldiers who died in Afghanistan feel.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte confronts Trump to his face about the lies he’s told about NATO. Rutte reminds Trump that soldiers from NATO nations fought and died alongside U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan. This confrontation was long overdue.

“This repulsive piece of shit IS Britain’s moral decline“
👏👏👏
Farage has the unbelievable nerve to talk at Davos about Britain’s “moral decline”.

This repulsive piece of shit IS Britain’s moral decline. He’s betrayed our country for self-interest, prejudice and greed. Shame on everyone who’s allowed that.

Trump just repeated again that China just builds wind turbines but did not use them themselves.

Truth is :they actually do. China has more wind power than any other country.

Trump:

"NATO has treated the United States very badly. We've never asked for anything. We've never got anything."

Tell that to the families of 850 soldiers from 19 non-US NATO countries who died fighting to defend the United States in Afghanistan - the only occasion Article 5 was ever triggered.

After one day of unity over Trump the Mail, the Telegraph, Times and Badenoch have decided the Chagos are more important than the destruction of the western alliance and backed the insane ramblings of a rogue president who was fine with the deal last year. We see you #collaborators
Choosing sides between a rogue president bent on destroying the Western alliance and UK and EU governments finally standing up to him shouldn’t be difficult for mainstream political parties or news organisations. So come on Telegraph, Times, Badenoch and yes you Farage if you want to be PM…
